In Red Dead Redemption 2, hunting is an important part of exploration and survival in the vast open world. In addition to finding food and other necessary supplies, you’ll be able to use materials taken from fallen prey to craft outfits and talismans, which unlock special perks that amplify Arthur’s main attributes. As you travel, you may even stumble upon an elusive animal that other explorers have rarely seen. Your first encounter with such a beast will be the Legendary Grizzly Bear, which can offer up a legendary bear pelt if you’re able take it down.

These Legendary Animals can be found across the many regions of the map and take some extra effort to hunt. While some of these are small in stature, there are many that tower in size over Arthur and are quite dangerous in a fight. But if you’re able to take them out, you’ll acquire the means to craft some of the game’s most valuable accessories and outfits. These particular animals offer the rarest pelts and materials you can find, which can be turned in to the local Trappers and Fences–those shady, black market dealers offering up some of the rarest goods. But rest assured, any materials that can’t fit in your bags will be sent straight to the respective merchants.
